Chapter 110 NEW JOB, NEW ENVIRONMENT PART 17

&#lt;p&#gt;"What family tradition? There is no such thing!" Mumu exclaimed.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin calmly said, "Oh, I see, then slavery must be the tradition."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Mr. Tang asked while frowning, "What slavery?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin shrugged. "Well, Xiao Rong has to run errand for bob cut girl so I thought slavery must be running in the family. At least Mr. Tang is getting monthly income working for Mumu's father. But Xiao Rong isn't getting anything except for humiliation from Mumu and scolding from his family. What else can I say about the behavior of you three against him? He is just a normal high school student like others. He deserves to be loved by his family and he deserves the respect from the students since he is the Student Council President."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"That's none of your business!" Mr. Tang was getting mad.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"It's hundred percent my business when Xiao Rong came to me and asked for my help." Xue Lin sharply looked at Mr. Tang. "I don't care how you raise your child but you have no right to force him to be someone's slave just so you can get a promotion or you can get on your boss' good side."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Mr. Tang's lips trembled. He stood up and shouted, "I raised him. He should be grateful to me and pay me back."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin's lips twitched. "Oh, I see, you want him to pay you by slaving around and being humiliated. Even though he has a potential to become someone famous with his intelligence and hard work, everything will be for nothing if you want him to be a girl's pet dog who wants to play with his life."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;She personally doesn't like family and there is a family trying to ruin a child with great potential. She felt like Xiao Rong was in her position. She continued, "I guess Xiao Rong is paying you back every day with his slavery. Then after you retire, he doesn't have to look after you since you cannot give him anything in return for taking care of you, am I correct?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Mr. and Mrs. Tang trembled. Mr. Tang was looking at Xue Lin speechlessly as if he never thought about it and Mrs. Tang's face was pale. Mrs. Tang finally opened her mouth. "But they are just children. They are childhood friends. They can fight, it's normal. It's not a big deal."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin asked, "What's not a big deal? Is it your son being bullied by the daughter of your husband's boss or your son not being allowed to stand for himself?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"That's-" Mrs. Rong couldn't find words.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"Because of your selfish act, not only Xiao Rong was bullied but also his girlfriend was bullied. And both of them were bullied by the bob cut girl and her friends. They nearly hurt the poor girl to the point that they made her bleed." Xue Lin looked at Mumu's ashen expression. "She also spread false rumor in the school about her dating Xiao Rong which led the students misunderstanding him and his girlfriend. Calling him 'cheat' when he is not."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"What?!" Mr. and Mrs. Tang were stunned. They didn't think something like that would happen in the school. Mr. Tang questioned, "Where is the girl? I want to see her. Or did you make it up by yourself?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;At that time, someone knocked on the door and then entered the room. It was Susu. She came inside timidly and bowed to the elders. "Hello, uncle, auntie, I'm Susu, Xiao Rong's… girlfriend." She was so nervous that her voice was shaking. Her mouth was still swollen and the corner of her lips was still cut. It wasn't healed completely.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Mrs. Tang asked, "How long have you known my son?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"I-I've known him since the sophomore. We started dating a week ago." Susu did her best to answer.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"I don't believe Mumu will do something like that." Mr. Tang firmly said.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"You won't believe your own flesh and blood but an outsider?" Xue Lin pretended to be stunned. "You do realize what you are saying right? And I hope that you do know that you are choosing the wrong side."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"I am never wrong." Mr. Tang said.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin nodded. "Very well, you may be right. Then are you saying that playing with your son's life like that is the right choice? Because if I go to the police and Xiao Rong gives his testimony, not only you two will go to jail but also bob cut girl and her friends who bullied your son and his girlfriend will be sent to the youth care facilities."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"What!" Mumu gasped. She would never go there. Her father will definitely protect her – that's what she believed.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin told Mr. and Mrs. Tang, "Because of your negligence and selfishness, an innocent, intelligent girl with a bright future was bullied. All because you allowed a girl to control your son's life as if his life or consent didn't matter."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;"A child must listen to their parents." Mr. Tang firmly said.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin nodded. "A child needs to listen to their parents only when it will do some good. If listening to parents means ruining his or her life, then there is no need for the child to listen to their parents no matter how filial they are. If parents can't be happy with the children's happiness, then there is only one path left for the children and that is, leaving the family that is useless."&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;She continued, "Because of you Xiao Rong's future goal is being hampered, then why should he listen to you? I believe you will be happy to see him succeed. Then why not let him do what he wants for himself? Why did you let an outsider control your son? He isn't a doll. He is a human with feelings. Why did you play with his heart since childhood?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Mr. Tang is egoistic. He is more stubborn than a rhinoceros. "A child should help his parents." It seems he isn't ready to back down from his belief.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Xue Lin sighed. "If that's how it is than I think Xiao Rong has already paid for yesterday by being a slave." She gazed at Xiao Rong and asked him, "Xiao Rong, what do you think you want to do? Do you want to stay with your family and become the boy cut girl's slave for the rest of your life or do you want to stand up for yourself and have a lovely future with the one you love?"&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;___________________________________________________________________________&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Attention!&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;Due to some technical problem you were unable to use the app for a while. It happens every year. So, next time, when it happens, don't use the app and wait for the Team to fix the problem.&#lt;/p&#gt;&#lt;br&#gt;&#lt;p&#gt;I know it was hard on you and so was it for us because the authors lost hundreds of dollars. But we were patient. I felt bad for the Team because it was midnight in China when it happened and most of the staffs went to sleep with tired body. They had to work the whole night with their tired brains and bodies to solve the problem.
